Skilled Worker Visa Guidelines

Skilled worker visa guidelines

The UK immigration system accepted a record number of foreign health and care workers, close to 100,000, who accounted for the majority of entrance visas for skilled workers. This is partly because of the severe staffing shortages in the health and care industry. Join the Grosvenor Nursing team and apply for jobs as a mental healthcare provider. Any time of the day or night, we offer thoroughly vetted agency staff to organisations searching for employees.

What is a skilled worker visa?

Grosvenor Nursing a reputable nursing agency in the UK provides information to help you make informed decisions when it comes to the skilled worker visa. Employers may use a skilled worker visa to sponsor foreign nationals to work in specific skilled occupations in the UK. This is the primary work visa for highly skilled foreign nationals in the UK. 

To be qualified for the skilled worker visa, which is a points-based visa, you must acquire at least 70 points. The points are awarded based on factors such as the pay for your job, your English language proficiency, and the number of competent candidates for your position. The skilled worker visa is valid for a maximum of five years. You can apply to have your visa extended if you meet the requirements.
